Music Finally, an entire forum devoted to talking about Doktor Avalanche, the drum machine for the Sisters of Mercy. You can talk about other bands, or other members of that band, too, if you want to be UNCOOL. |

Name the Lyric [Game]
Yay, another game!
Sorry if this has already been done, but I couldn't find one like it so...
Okay, it's basically the same as Name the Movie, only with song lyrics instead of film quotes. One person [me] puts down a lyric, and the next tries to figure out what it is and puts the name of the song and the band and another lyric...and so on and so forth.
You can google them if you want, but it takes all the fun out of it.
"I hear the sons of the city and the dispossessed,
Get down get undressed."

Lucretia My Reflection by Sisters of Mercy
"Sailing on corpse seas; beneath the stars
Which distance is not as close as it has been
Within the black sphere, life is no more...
And from the tattered sky fall the broken wings of man
And thus the kingdom of God must be covered by
Broken feathers and ashes rains..."

Yay! Someone is playing.
Gotherfall - Skyzofleshist Plastic?
"I live in Siberia,
Through no fault of my own.
We're a blank generation,
In the danger zone
Paracidal slumbers from 7 to 23...
Only the blind follow me."

Deluxeboy - Three Million Odd People?
Ah, that's probably not right...
"As above, so below, place your bets
Which way the head will roll
Made in your image, we are at least
As twisted and mean as thee
'Fore your eyes, what a curious site
Your children have turned on you
And you say, you don't sleep well at night
Well, we'll take care of that for you."

The Headless Waltz by Voltaire!
Eating the peanuts
That the parties have tossed you
In the back seat of your father's new Ford.
You believe in the ballot,
Believe in reform.
You have faith in the elephant and jackass,
And to you, solidarity's a four-letter word.
We're all hypocrites,
But you're a patriot.

Baby, I'm An Anarchist by Against me?
There's a lonely room I'm lost within
and reasons fall
in a black hole heart
on a nowhere ride
through the ruins of your love

That song by Elusive, the name escapes me now.
In the fight for existence and life
There is no law
And in the presence of eternal death
There is no law
And as the struggle for power and domination prevails
In the arising slaughter
It shall be every man for himself
As in battle there is no law
An easy one, if you know my musical tastes.

In battle there is no law by Bolt Thrower!
And the wild cats roaming in among the tombs and graves
And the flickering white meon of cross and jesus saves
And the headlights like fires and the crowds in the streets
Children dressed in rags begging at our feet
And we crawled back to our room
With our heads spinning ’round
And we just lay in the dark
And didn’t dare make a sound
PS The Elusive song is "The Circle Never Ends"

That was "Alone" by obscure unknown artist Haze, whose recording company went under a few years back and hasn't made anything since her debut album Master of the Powerless.
Anyways, Mission U.K. - "Never Again"
"We got the right to choose it,
there ain't no way we'll lose it"

The Crüxshadows - Orphean Wing. Great song!
Black tongues speak faster than the car can crash
You supply the rumours
And I'll provide the wrath

Dead Can Dance - "Wild in the Woods" Sneaky! Took me a while to get that one!
This might be a difficult one:
I saw the film said that's the life for me
Forsake the mundane for some instability
So sue me
Now you're hiding upstairs
And now I'm not so sure
What this all this for

Joyride by Tribe ?
A Nightingale in a golden cage
That's me lock in a reality maze.
Journey homeward bound
The sound of a dolphin calling
Tearing off the mask of man
The tower
My soul guide
This is who I am
Escapist
Paradise Seeker
Farewell, time to fly
Out of sight
Out of time
Away from our lives
These are very touching parts.

Nightwish - "The Escapist"
Thou mighty gulf, insatiate cormorant
Deride me not, though I seem petulant
To fall into thy chops. Let others pray
For ever their fair poems flourish may.

To Everylasting Oblivion Lyrics by L'ame Immortelle
"Do the Zombie-Shuffle like an Old-School Ghoul
We’re the Backups from Beyond, we’re the Cannibal Crew
We’re the Rockin’ Resurrected and we’ve come for your head
Let’s party like we’re fuckin’ dead!
Three weeks dead, you smell like shit
We’re the Monsters of the Mosh, Demons of the Pit
This night was made for us, we’re the Living Dead
I’m gonna eat your fuckin’ head!"

It's called Zombie Crew, but I can't remember who its by.
"Yes the world would be depressing,
Over death I'd be obsessing
And this corpse that I'm undressing
Would be sexier, I'm guessing-
With my diet I'd get scurvy
And I'd worship Peter Murphy,
If I only were a Goth!"

The humans are dead by Flight Of The Conchords? xD
"Just know
We are
A speck
In time.
So follow your bliss
And destroy the beauty
I'll lock myself alone in a room
Drink until the clock strikes noon
With just a pen, a pill, and some paper
And maybe I will write a sad song
Or another cliche poem
Of the person that I long to be"

No, it was Robot Army by Wingzar!
Senses Fail - The Irony of Dying on Your Birthday?
Shakespeare died on his birthday...
"Yes I can do everything you need, from out of my new SUV
All my work is guaranteed to last the length of your recovery
Put away those pliers honey, trust me cause I know the options
How about a nine-month long vacation and a two-foot coffin?"

The Dresden Dolls - Mandy goes to Med school
"To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,
To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,
I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,
In a room with a window in the corner I found truth."
